Working with Clay Slabs with Natalie Kossack

Discover how fun and approachable ceramics can be in this hands-on workshop focused on building with clay slabs. Slab construction is a versatile technique used to create functional pieces like mugs, bowls, vases, and more—making it a perfect entry point for anyone curious about clay.

You’ll learn how to work with slabs and templates to design and build your own functional ceramic piece, exploring hand-building techniques that encourage creativity and experimentation.

Whether you’re brand-new to clay or already have some experience, this workshop offers a welcoming space to learn, play, and make something you’ll be proud to use at home.

All clay, tools, and firing fees are included. Once fired, your finished piece will be ready for pickup at Arlene’s in 3–4 weeks.

A great choice for makers who love functional art, enjoy tactile processes, or want to try something new this season.
